From defying gravity on stage to feeling the thrill of an F1 car, Cynthia Erivo brought some magic to the Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend. 

The actress and singer-songwriter, who stars as Elphaba in the Wicked: For Good movie, stepped into the cockpit of Williams Racing driver Carlos Sainz’s car.

“Switching the broom for the cockpit,” F1 posted on Instagram.

From casting spells as Elphaba to experiencing the precision and pace of Formula 1, Erivo got a firsthand look at the intensity of a Grand Prix garage.
